Thanks, Carlos. I check the archives. But are you saying that it is
better to indicate this as......

class-map foo
match protocol http mime "image/jpeg"

There have been many threads discussing NBAR and MIME types, there is
good content to take a look in the archives !

Don't confuse MIME type with file name.
Types are like "Content-Type: image/jpeg;", no dot there.

Also, get confortable with direction of transfers and where NBAR can see
some MIME encodings. Browsers advertize what they can receive, http
servers tell what format the content they send is.
